Falcons safety Keanu Neal, who was out with a trunk/torso injury, returned to practice on Sunday.
Falcons coach Dan Quinn gave a full injury report after practice.
“(Kemal Ishmael) has a shoulder strain and he’ll likely be down this week along with (running back Terron) Ward,” Falcons coach Dan Quinn said after rpractice on Sunday. “He’s making progress. It was good to have back out there for today, (tight end Levine) Toilolo and Neal. We are hopeful that both of those will move forward this week.
“We held out Matt Bryant today. He had some tightness. That’s day-to-day. (Tight end) D.J. Tialavea, we had him back in a rehab run so we are hopeful to have him back for the game.”
Neal, the 17th player taken in the NFL draft, did not play in the exhibition opener against Washington on Thursday. He’s slated to make his debut at Cleveland at 8 p.m. Thursday night.
Running back Tevin Coleman was pulled from practice late as a heat precaution.
